Owners of Developer Edition phones are the most dedicated of Android enthusiasts, they who eschew the traditional carrier model and put their money where their mouths are for the sake of total control and the principles of open-source operating systems. (Also, I suppose a few of the might be actual software developers. You never know.) For those who’ve purchased the Developer Edition of HTC’s 2015 flagship, the update to Android 5.1 is going out right now.

Mozilla, keeping pace with their regular rapid release schedule, released an update for Firefox Beta today. v39 graduated to stable, sending v40 to the beta channel. With some focus on changes to the desktop version, there aren’t major user-facing changes in this Android update. Still, there should be some performance improvements along with a nice UI improvement for navigating forward and backwards through a tab’s history.

The overflow menu has been home to the forward and back shortcuts for quite a while now, but there wasn’t an efficient way to go back or forward by several pages.

Do you remember the days when Firefox on Android was demonstrably terrible? It’s really come a long way since then thanks to an accelerated release cycle and beta channel for Android. There’s a new version graduating from beta to stable today, but it’s not a huge update. Most of the changes are bug fixes and minor tweaks, but an update is an update.

In Lebanon, we have one seaside road where traffic direction reverses reliably at 11am and 11pm to lower congestion and help more people get into or out of Beirut as fast as possible. It doesn’t do miracles on very busy days, but it helps a bit. The idea isn’t unique to us and if you live in big metropolitan U.S areas with heavy traffic on some of the highways, then you know what reversible lanes are.

Huawei has had a complicated relationship with the Ascend Mate2 and its software update. It originally announced that the device would stay on Android 4.3 last year, but then reversed itself and said the Mate2 would jump straight to Lollipop. It’s taken a long time, but there’s finally a public version of this update, but it’s still technically a “preview.”

The update is based on Android 5.1 and comes with a new version of Huawei’s EMUI layer.
